NH TC40D rear hydraulics

[RobertN]

I have a NH TC40D. It does not have rear remotes for tip/tilt, or auxiliary lines to run a log splitter.

The factory parts are discontinued.
I have not been able to fin any aftermarket support that would bolt in like the factory valves and pipe did. I don't see anything from Shibuara.

Are there any options besides bolting an aftermarket valve set to the ROPS and tapping in to the Power Beyond on the loader valve?

I wish I would have done it when I got the tractor; parts were available... Jinman(miss him!) had the whole factory setup on his TC45; that was a nice setup.

Did you try Messicks? It looks like they have them.

I may be wrong, but it looks like the original kit has been replaced with a new one.

Looks like parts are readly avaible and pretty cheap to 1st is $550 2nd $550 3rd is $1100 . The only reason I don't buy them for my tractor is they are $1,400 and $1,200 respectively.:thumbdown::drink:

I had not tried Messicks. Where I had found the remotes online, they all said not in stock/not available.

Looking at Messiks now

This opens up more questions. I am really looking for two things.

#1 I have a 3pt log splitter that runs on tractor hydraulics. Right now, it has long hydraulic lines; I disconnect hydraulics from the load and plug the splitter in. Then I engage the loader lever to supply splitter. Works, but not good solution when I want to move etc.

#2 I would like to add TnT at some point. I had it on my old Kubota, and really miss it.

To use the log splitter, would it be best to use a remote valve kit, and connect the splitter to it in place of a TnT top or side link? These valves do not stay open; I'd have to bungee cord the lever? Effectively that is what I am doing with the loader hydraulic circuit now. It would still be nicer to not have to use the loader circuit.

Fab a mount for an aftermarket valve stack with three valves, one of which has detent for the spitter. You also might want float for the top link valve.
